Janet Jackson gave birth to her first child, Eissa Al Mana, Tuesday at the age of 50, People reports. "Janet had a stress-free healthy delivery and is resting comfortably," according to a statement. News of the "Nasty" singer's pregnancy first broke last May, and Jackson postponed the remainder of her world tour. "She'll be a great mother because she is very tough, very strict," her brother Jermaine said in May. Eissa's father is Jackson's third husband, Wissam Al Mana, who she married in 2012, the BBC reports. (Read more Janet Jackson stories.)

Often times, women at that age uses surrogacy to conceive and I’m amazed that she is able to carry it by herself full term and deliver it safely as well. My husband and I just found out that I’m pregnant, thanks to conceiveeasy, we are now expecting baby#2. Congratulations to Janet!
